    I think the Limond fight is the most exciting. I was delighted when he knocked out Salita though. Simply for the **** he said about Khans chin being scientifically proven weak.

    Yeah thats why the Limond fight for me is the best one, Just so much action. One goes down, Gets up, Puts the other one down, A really exciting fight to watch.

    As for those first right fights ie Salita, Earl, Medjadi, you never got to see much of them. Same with Khan v Prescott.

    Probably Gomez but the Prescott fight really had that "WTF?????" feeling about it watching it live.

    The Kotelnik fight. He stuck to the game plan, showed some different facets to his game, he also displayed very good stamina and let us know he can circle, fight backwards and still maintain combat effectiveness and not just be "on his bike". Great character to come back from the Prescott disaster aswell against an opponent he had a stylistic advantage over, but who was no slouch. He pitched a shutout and discovered his identity as a fighter.

    Khan - Gomez was a good fight, But Gomez was abit beyond shot. If it was the Gomez from the Alex Arthur fight against Khan it would have been more competitive.

    But yes still a great fight, The stoppage was abit premature in Gomez fight imo.

    Agree with this too, while some of the others provided raw excitement, I think this fight was a pure boxing clinic, the sweet science on display against a tidy and extremely durable boxing professional!

    I'd agree with that. By the way do you know what happened to the poster Lexar? He appeared when you were banned, but it definitely wasn't you and then when you came back he dissapeared. Do you know if he was banned or something?

    I voted for the Prescott fight. At the time I hated Khan with a passion as he was being fed opponents that I'd have a shot at beating (bar Gomez that **** was a great fight). He had already been decked by a light punching blown up Feather (Willie) but people were still raving about the kid.

    When he got knocked out within a minute, it really brought him down a peg and made him work more on the defensive side (not necessarily getting hands up but more throwing shots and getting out). IMO that fight changed his career and made him focus, which is why it's my favourite fight.

    Also respect to him for taking Maidana fight. I really believe some1 is gonna get knocked out, but I dunno who yet.
